In order that iho facts may bo mndn tn

hereinbefore complained of.
CAUOHT THEM UNPIinPAIlED.
The mrmbem of the honrJ seemed liken
by eiirp Iso and nt the close of the reading
for a coitplo of minutes not n wnrl was
Rpokon. Then the following colloquy took
place , being taken verbatim by ono of the
district court reporters :
Mr , Mescrvc It would strike me that wo
have very lltllo to do with this matter only
to canvass this vote nti wo find It here.
kclioj Not when the abstracts show on
1ho fsco of them that they have not como
Into your hands as the law tequlrcs , It seems
to mo that as a canvassing board they chal
lenge your Inquiry Immediately ; they show
tli/U / some of them nt least , and as I think
the evidence of the cccrctary of state will
chow , thit others came horn to your hands
In such slmpa na to place It bojond. your
power to canvass , for they show on their
face that they have been tampered with.'o
ask leave to have the secretary of etato
nworn touching that matter.
Th.3 Governor I nugKcot that wo proceed
to make the canvcss and take the enclosures
which should come hero under the seal and
signatures of the canvassing boards , nnd If
upon the fnco of them there Is any sugges
tion of irregularity then It Is , If sitmclent ,
to exact an explanation nnd put tha person
on his Inquliy , the matter should be looked
Into.
Into.Mr.
Mr. Smyth ( addressing Mr. Kelley ) Do
you chirgo here that these votes or abstracts
have been changed ?
Kelley Some of the abstracts have been
sent back to the county clerks ; wo charge
tils ) and name come of the counties , for the
purpcso of changing them.
The Governor I am rot saying that the
return was not In the regular wry , but th'a '
board has autho Ity to return Tor changes It
it appears that there Is a noncompllanco In
any respect.
Kelley The canvassing board or the
county clerk have no more authority to do
It than any other person.
Govcrnci' Don't the law mnkc It Iho duty
of the board to return It ? Can't the can
vassing board bo compelled to loconvono ?
Kelley That Is all right If that Is done
If the canvassing board sends to three
county canvassing boards and requires them
to reconvene to make the changes then we
have no protest , but where the secretary of
Btnto fiends thcso abstiacts back to the
county clerk and asks him to corerct them
to til's wo do protest
IT WAS IRREGULAR.
Govo nor It might bo Irregular without
the reconvening of the canvassing board of
the coanty , but where the canvassing board
ma ) bo icqulrcd to reconvene It would not
bo l..csular
Kellcy So tint there may bo no misunder
standing , If I observe conoctly as you chcHv
off tlicse abstracts there n e same that now
sho.v that they have been opened , and v\o
have Information that others have been
opened and returned to the county clerk for
correction ami amendment , part of them ,
and a laigo part of them , wo are not prepared
to say Jus. how many , but the necreta y of
ijtato maj 1'uow and bo able to clear up this
matter.
Mr. Portor-pl have no objection ; I would
rather tnnko a statement than otherwise and
tell all I UnovY , which Is very little , but the
gentleman who had this In dliect charge ,
Mr. Mann , would not Lave any objection to
being put under ojth nnd tell how this was
done.
Mesorvc The question Is whether the can-
vnsslac bcnrd has any right to go Into thla
nt all until wo discover something that places
LI ? upon our Inquiry.
Coincll If there nro no dates changed or
or to dl llxed I don't see how wo can
Kelley We don't say that the election re
turns have been tuanised , but every man has
a right to knew and understand what was
done ; the law provides 'i ' certain pi election
for these abstracts , and jart of tceso ab
stracts shew upon the face of thorn that thcj
have been tampered with atiJ I feel that not
only the seororary but evciy official In Ills
olllco should ho asked to tell what they know
obout this matter.
Smith The question before us H this ,
whether wo shall canvass a part of the envel
opes laid before us by the oecietary of state
In his tlitlal ! capacity as returned from the
counties ; some appear to have been opened
ftt some time and thH appeals tcbo la violation
lation of the strict letter of the liw , but I
don't uncleistcnd jou gentlemen to claim that
ttio votes or abstract * from the counties have
been changed ; of course , If jou do that pro-
cents a question that we will have to pass
upon.
Kelley That la the purpose of our com
ing liere.
Smyth You mal.o no direct charge that
opy of thcEO returns have been changed , do
jou ?
Kelley Wo don't know what changes have
been mudo. .
Smyth Hut you want us to go Into the
investigation , or in ether words sen wan , .
to thiow out a net to catch us In ?
Kelley That la what vo propose to do ,
to throw out a net when tneso returns como

Kelley You have ft fight to direct tlino
canvassing boards to reconvene , but jou
can't canvass thcio return * today , because
thcso mo not proper abstracts coming to you
from the canvassing boards ot the counties.
Dai01 nor What do iou claim about thrso
jxipcri that they should not bo counted ?
Kelley That they have not come to this
board ni the law rcqulren to tills board ,
SMYTH FAVORS INVE3T1OATION.
Smyth Unless wo would bo compelled lo
hold that because the rcturnn were opened
bv the secretary of state before handing
them to us , we cannot count these returns
unless wo were compelled to hold that the
objection as you now make It U not suf
ficient , but If > ou mike Iho objection that
sjmo ono of these returns have been changed
I think then , we should InveatlKato the mat
ter , anl for ono , I should bo In favor of mak-
InR a thorough Investigation !
Kelley When they como to you on their
face clnllciiRcd it is a fact that should bo
InvMtlgitod , and I think if > ou will permit
the testimony wo arc ready to present wo
MM satisfy vou.
Governor In the absence of a direct charge ,
and none has been made , I am lu favor ot
orcccojlng with the canvass until wo reach
a county which has something about It which
suggests that It has been changed or tampered
with ; then we should satisfy ourselves by ovl-
dcno which we may call for and such ns IB
suggested by you.
Kelley There are about twenty counties
that had the returns sent back for correction
and moro than twenty have not come as the
law rcnulres.
Smyth I think when wo reach a county
of that kind wo should have the evidence.
Governor I suggest that wo do this. Hero
are the papers and files and markings every
thing wo havcj Now , then , the matter which
wo are looking Into Is the canvassing ot the
votes , as shown by the abstracts. I was goIng -
Ing to suggest that wo .open these votes or
cnclosurei and take the abstracts and examIne -
Ino them. And you , gentlemen , are hero , If ,
as wo go along , any nf jou deslro to call
special attention to any of the counties to
make known that fact ; wo will then take
nn the abstracts themselves cad determine
whether wo will go ahead as presented or
whether wo will ask for anything further
and by that means wo will bo making some
nrogrcis.
Smyth That la satisfactory to mo.
Porter I think It would bo Just as well
for me to make a statement of what I know
abaut this.
.Mescrxe I don't think so.
Porter I don't want this board to bo put In
the attitude of being a party to anything
that occurred In my ofllco , or for anj thing
that wo have done ; wilfully wo have douo
nothing that wo should not have dono.
Moscrvu The question Is w bother wo c n
determine the will of the people.
Sm > th It Mr Porter desires to state What
ho did do with the papers I certainly would
not object to his being given an opportunity
to do it. or to state It under cath.
Poitcr I prefer to make a statement.
Kclloj The first county we > call your at
tention to is Adams county. It appears to
1 ave been op on Oil before It was presented to
this bord by some peroan outside and not
irsponslblo and It maj luvo been tampered
vvIth for all that wo know.
DECIDE TO GO AHEAD.
Governor Ilolcomb and Attoiney General
Smyth agreed that it would bo best to go
ahead cud open the abstracts and a motion
to tlat effect carried unanimously.
Adams county , the first on the list , was
taken up , and the envelope being one of those
that hid been opened In the secretary's office
flonio time ago , Mr. Kelley made specific ob
jection to It , for the reason tl-at It Lad been
tair. < cred with , contrary to law. The at
torney general &ald ho was In favor of com
pelling the protestants to give some proof
to back tholr charges , and If they < could not
do so. then the board should Ignore their
objections A motion to thn effect was put
and c-irrled This seemed to bo what Mr
Kelley was waiting for , as he at once called
rur Mr. Porter to be sworn. Mr. Smyth sug
gested that -any questions relative to the
evening of the abstracts would be Improper
and must bo objected to.
Mr. Porter said that he did not know
when the abstract from Adams county was
rcceved at his ofllcc. He did not reinarntcr
of over having seen It , and was not euro
that It had been opcaed In his ofllco , and
then returned to Adams county for correc
tion. Ho Lad made no Inquiry of his clerks
as to wlut had been done Ho admitted
that he d'd Lot know whether the abstract
before him was the original or a duplicate.
At this point both Smjth and Meservo ob
jected to further questlors along th'e line.
Mr. Porter then closed his testimony b >
sajlng that a number ot the abstracts had
been opened In his office , but he could not
tell which ones , or when the opening was
lone.
WEE3NER KNEW NOTHING OF IT.
Deputy Secretary Woesner was called by
Mr. Kelly rod asked If ho knew when the
abstract fiom Adams county had been
opened. He could not remember , and then
started to explain who opened It , when the
attorney general interposed an objection.
Mr. Wcesrer said ho could not tell when
the envelope was received , as there was no
record of such matters.
The chief bookkeeper of the ofllco was
called. Ho did not remember the envelope
from Adams county In particular , as there
were quite a nutnber of abstracts opened.
No record was kept ot the receipt of the
abstracts. Ho admitted that ho had opened
i number of t.io envelopes , and In cnswcr
to a question by Mr Kelley , started to tell
whrno buslccta It was to examine the ab
stracts , when Attorney General Smyth again
objected to the line the testimony was
taking.
The bookkeeper said Mr. Weasner opened
some of the envelopes , but ho could not re
member who broke the seal of the Adams
county envelope-and ho could not tell when
It had beoo sent back to the county clerk.
There was no record Kept.
Governor Ilolcomb remarked that a "good
deal of valuable time was being burned , "
and asked the protcolanta to hurry along.
At the clcao of the testimony the board
proceeded to open the returns , and Mr.
Kelley made a formal pioteat against the
canvassing of any of the votes until It could
bo shown , that they had not teen tampered
with.
The only work done by the board toward
making the canvass was to open and exam
ine the abstracts. H w > i ascertained that
they wcro all In proper form , and an ad
journment was taken until morning , when
the work will be completed.

The Jury la the $10,000 damage suit brought
against the city or York by Pearl Munson
decided that the plaintiff Is entitled to noth
ing. The Jurors were out Just two hours
and a half. The feature of the trial today
was the conflicting testimony Introduced In
rebuttal by the plilntlff. The main line of
defense , which the city attorney has been
following , was based en the ground that
Pearl Munson's lameness , alleged to have
been caused by a defective street crossing
In October. 1800 , came from Inherited hip
disease. In denial of the sworn testimony
of a physician , the parents of the child tes
tified that she had never been treated for
such disease prior to her alleged accident.
